Jason van Zyl closed MNG-1452.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

The wiki has been updated and we've decided to create new POMs for new artifacts so that third party use will work without Maven magic.

> We need a way to deploy aggregate JARs produced by the assembly plug-in. Some things to consider:
> 1) A new POM will need to be created to reflect the contents of the aggregate JAR
> 2) Do we want a standard name or classifier for these aggregate JARs, one standard name might not be enough as different assemblies for the same project might contain slightly different things.
> 3) Do we want assemblies like this to be in their own builds? Right now the J2EE JAR in the Geronimo build is like this whereas the assembly for the embedder is part of the embedder build. Would separating the build make it easier to deploy? Maybe.
